Magnificently located on the old industrial landscape of Camel Quarry, on the striking shores of Cornwall’s Camel Estuary, English Garden represents wild, scenic luxury at its finest.
Created from earthy, natural materials by award-winning architects, with a breathtaking garden (designed by Gold Chelsea winner Mary Reynolds, no less), and solar panels for heating, the house sleeps up to 16 guests, and is chock-full of sensory indulgences.
There’s a beautiful cedar hot tub for you to enjoy sunset views from, along with a media room and a gym, with designer accessories, well-chosen art, and streamlined, uncluttered surroundings throughout.
The box-like upper floor is languorously open plan, flanked by floor-to-ceiling windows that showcase that wild and wondrous scenery to jaw-dropping perfection. With irresistibly comfy seating, you’ll feel compelled to breathe out and relax – or curl up with a good book from the well-stocked shelves.
Meanwhile, the kitchen area is so fabulously well-equipped and well-appointed, with a sleek Range and a walk-in fridge, that you’ll be fighting over who gets to prepare the evening meal!
Enjoy the winner’s culinary creations at the large dining table, as you chat and laugh together with more of those sweeping views for company.
On sunny evenings, why not head out to the roof terrace or garden, instead? You’ll find the former equipped with a built-in barbecue, and bench seating for sizzling suppers, while the latter is filled with enchanting nooks and crannies… featuring estuary views, a firepit, and a swinging pumpkin seat to help you gaze at the distant, twinkling lights of Padstow.
